Another test is done on a blood sample to determine the level of a protein (prostate-specific antigen or PSA) produced by prostate cells. The PSA test may indicate a person has a higher chance of having prostate cancer but controversies about the test exist (see following slide). The patien...

Lilja and colleagues previously reported that serum PSA level in men aged 50 years was a strong predictor of prostate cancer diagnosed up to 25 years afterwards. However, the researchers concede that many prostate cancers do not cause morbidity or mortality and have, therefore, reanalyzed their ...
Prostate cancer was detected in 268 (35.3%) of 760 patients. cPSA was greater than 8.3 ng/mL (equivalent to 10.0 ng/mL tPSA) in 46.6% of the men with cancer. The area under the curve for cPSA (0.741) was significantly better than that for tPSA (0.721, P <0.001). At a ...
该研究还探索了PSMA-PET/CT的预后预测效能,基于PSMA-PET/CT的重分期升期、肿瘤分期和转移位置是术后PSA持续未达根治水平的预测因素,而基于PSMA-PET/CT的肿瘤分期是影响预后的独立因素,PSMA-PET/CT作为基线评估工具,对患者预后风险的区分度较高,可在基线阶段早期识别预后不佳的患者群体,为早期积极干预提供了时间窗口...
p pBackground/p pThe role of Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing in the early detection of prostate cancer is controversial. Current UK policy stipulates that any man who wishes to have a PSA test should have access to the test, provided he has been given full information about the ben...
The initial goal of prostate cancer screening with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was to identify men with early-stage disease according to the general oncologic principle of secondary prevention that early diagnosis and treatment would prevent disease progression and improve survival. However, 2 ...
Prostate cancer is a complex disease that affects millions of men globally, predominantly in high human development index regions. Patients with localized disease at a low to intermediate risk of recurrence generally have a favourable outcome of 99% over
